Laundry Cottage late 1800's

Laundry Cottage built in the late 1800's.
The house has an interesting Ley Line post erected on the North lawn which has
the inscription on 3 sides 'May Peace Prevail On Earth' and on the fourth side
an inscription in ?Japanes or Chinese? which may say the same thing.
This Ley Line just happens by chance, to be exactly on our modern metric
British National Grid latitude of SU9243/9344, in which direction the Ley Line
goes from here is not known at present.
On the parkland is a Cedar of Lebanon with a very large diameter trunk,
likely to be one of the original 1735 trees planned by Capability Brown.

Dairy Cottage 1700's & 2000

Dairy Cottage built in the 1700's probably at the same time as the farm yard
and other buildings built in the same Red brick.
Used by Park House School as a Canoe store, as found scratched on the front door.
Sold in 1995 along with all the other buildings on the estate for
redevelopment, plans were drawn up but the project put on hold.
Sold in 1997 to new owner, plans redrawn because of modified boundary,
Renovated in 1999 and new extention started in late 1999, shell completed in 2000.
Internal works have progressed and the new extention is now habitable.(12-2003)
The 1.5 acre site includes a 33mtr wide and 150mtr long strip of parkland
going south to the river Wey, this parkland has some of the original trees
from the 1700's and the flower bed is belived to have been
originally planted by Gertrude Jekyll.

Park Avenue 1950's

Park Avenue 1970's

Park Avenue was originally built as staff houses for the then
Park House School and is six semi detached houses of various designs.
Situated with its own drive to the south west of the estate,
these houses have mostly been added to and have a garage either attached or
seperate.
They all have a rear north facing garden and a open strip of parkland in
front sweeping downhill to the south.
